Insistent Tree


 The local bank branch shut down a few years ago on the corner of Cavendish and Somerled. Without maintenance, a tree grew from a crack in the sidewalk getting taller each year and now it is taller than the bus stop. I appreciate how nature can take over again if given the chance. At some point this tree will be cut down, so I decided to finally make a painting of it for posterity. It was also fun to paint a garbage bin, one of my favorite themes to indulge in from time to time. It was good to practice the greens because I will be on a hiking trip soon to my favorite haunt, that is mount Sutton.
